HP 49G

This page is for documentation for the HP 49G programmable/graphics calculator. Documents are primarily chapters from the book Engineering Mathematics with the HP 49 G by Dr. Gilberto Urroz that can be purchased at Amazon.com at the link below.

Getting started with the HP 49G calculator: basic operations
This document is an introduction to the HP 49G calculator. The document describes the calculator's features, how to update the ROM, websites that provide additional information, calculator operating modes, setting of flags, basic memory operations, etc. A detailed description of the calculator's keyboard is also included and can be used as a quick reference resource when using the calculator.

Real and Complex Number Operations with the HP 49G Calculator
This document introduces the Calculator Algebraic System and show simple operations with real and complex numbers. Examples of calculations with real numbers using standard functions (exponential, logarithmic, powers, trigonometric functions), display options, hyperbolic functions, operations with non-decimal numbers, probability functions, etc. are provided. Complex numbers and their operation in the calculator, as well as functions of complex variables are also covered.


Programming the HP 49G Calculator in User RPL Language
This document presents the basics of programming the HP 49 G in User RPL language through a variety of examples. It's recommend that you try the programming examples presented in "Functions, Lists, and Programs with the HP 49 G Calculator" (free at Infoclearinghouse.com) before reading this document. It is not the intention of this chapter to teach everything about programming the calculator. It is instead aimed to providing programming tools and examples that can be used later in the development of simple programming for evaluating functions, data processing, and even graphs.

Univariate Calculus Applications with the HP 49G Calculator
This document presents some examples of applications of derivatives and integrals of one variable in selected physical and engineering sciences.

Working with Surfaces with the HP 49G Calculator
This document describes how to define, plot, and evaluate areas and integrals of surfaces with the HP 49 G calculator.

Statistics and Probability Functions of the HP 49G Calculator
This document covers a variety of applications of the HP 49 G calculator to the analysis and reduction of data: e.g., analysis of single data sets to obtain sample statistics, analysis of frequency distribution and plotting of histograms, and fitting of data through a number of pre-programmed functions. Also included are practical applications of statistical inference such as the generation of confidence intervals, and the test of hypotheses. The document concludes with a presentation of the method of least-squares for linear regression and inference procedures applied to such data fitting.

Algebraic Operations With the HP 49 G Calculator
This document presents detailed explanations on the use of the Computer Algebraic System (CAS) functions for algebraic manipulation of expressions including polynomials, fractions, exponential and logarithmic terms, trigonometric identities, expansion and factorization. A brief presentation of modular arithmetic is presented to introduce the MOD operation.
